The best bargain I have bought for my living room this year is a $20 wall light that should have been $100 – it's elegant and economical

Pooky is one of my favorite lighting brands, amazing quality and prices that match that quality, so when I saw they had a scone on sale for less than my lunch costs, I snapped it up

I love a black tie moment. Any excuse to dress up – I’ll take it. I even issue a dress code for my birthday every year. That same fondness for formality extends to interiors, too – though in the home, elegance is about creating a mood, which isn't exactly as simple as slipping into a gown.

Or maybe it is. Meet Pooky’s Bow Tie Wall Sconce, a fixture that feels perpetually dapper. You’ve likely seen it before – it’s one of their best-selling lighting ideas – but you probably haven’t seen it for this price: just $20, marked down from $100.

Yes, I’m partial to the fact that this living room wall lighting is shaped like its namesake menswear accessory, but its silhouette does more than charm. The dual cones direct light both up and down, acting like a spotlight or, when dimmed (yes, it dims), an ambient glow.

It’s 80% off through the end of July – or, more realistically, until it sells out. And if my sixth sense as a shopping editor is worth anything, that’ll be sooner rather than later. The same goes for the rest of Pooky’s on-sale lighting lineup: wall sconces, cordless lamps, pendants, chandeliers – all marked down 30–80%.

I’ve linked my favorites below.


If outdoor lighting is also on your list, Pooky’s outdoor lighting collab with the Novogratz is bright, upbeat, and, being cordless, blissfully free of electricians, so you can update your outdoor spaces instantly.
